“Tod is an amazing teacher. Instead of following a rote path of instruction, he lets students pick the type of music they want to play, and then adapts his teaching style to impart the necessary techniques and music theory along the way.

I can't tell you what a difference Tod has made in my playing and ease on the fretboard." Tommy
